Ricardo Pinto

Born in Portugal, I have lived most of my life in Scotland. A degree in mathematics barely distracted me from world-building projects; a passion that led into computer games exploring 3D, vector graphic worlds, when sprites were the mainstream; this was back in the 80s—of course, in computer game terms, an aeon ago. Other sorts of science fiction games occupied me for a while and, eventually, for more than ten years, I worked on The Stone Dance of the Chameleon. I have been busy since with a range of projects: graphic novels, more fantasy and sci-fi work, and a historical novel that I have set aside for now. After releasing the Second Edition of my Stone Dance books, I returned to writing a science fiction novel that is about AI, ecology, mythology and how humanity might find peace and redemption

Research into areas that interest me, and the connections that make sense of the world, spill in bursts onto my blog hermitabroad
